   I just bought the 760gm-hdv MB with AM3+*     FX     FD8350FRW8KHK     125W     Vishera     4000MHz     2200MHz     2MBx4     8MB     C0     All https://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/760GM-HDV/index.asp#CPU I have FD8350FRW8KHK which I know is good cause it run my Gigabyte MB. But it does not run none of my FX cpu that is on the list. I have a Phenom II X6 HDT45TWFK6DGR that runs on my Gig MB. But will not run on this 760gm-hdv MB it IS on the CPU list. What do I have to do to get this to run on them???? | |

   So both the FX 8350 and the Phenom II don't work on the new 760gm-hdv board? Both those CPUs are listed as supported, they are supported on all BIOS versions. What are the rest of your components? Did you connect the 8pin CPU power connector to the board? What happens when you power on the system with these CPUs? Have you tried connecting your monitor to the motherboard display outputs? | |

   I tried powering it on with RAM and CPU and Monitor only. The RAM it is running it now with my AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor CPU so it is not the ram nor the CPU. The FD8350FRW8KHK CPU powers up my old gigabyte MB. So CPU and RAM are good.  So I'm stump/ | |
